Book synopsis

A particular area of interest in this volume is the landscape and economy of late Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman England, with papers on castles, deer parks, marshlands, fisheries, and taxation. Two complementary papers discuss neglected aspects of the Bayeux Tapestry: gesture, and the representation of identity and status. Other papers survey the deaths of kings, the role of the Norman vicomte, the estates of the king's wife in Anglo-Saxon England, and lay piety. John Gillingham's Allen Brown Memorial Lecture considers right conduct in battle. Chris Lewis is Reader in History at the Institute of Historical Research, University of London, and VCH Editor for Sussex. Contributors include: John Gillingham, Stephen Church, Mark Gardiner, Alban Gautier, Mark Hagger, Ryan Lavelle, Michael Lewis, Andrew Lowerre, Gale Owen-Crocker, Hugh Thomas, Hirokazu Tsurushima, Andrew Wareham and Xiang Dong Wei.
